so far I’ve seen some bots post articles that setup some pretty decent conversation. I am slightly annoyed that it floods but, I just keep my sorting by stuff that’s hot and it’s usually good.

I chose my name as a shortened version of the name I generally use on social media platforms. It’s just this one is easier to type and since the account didn’t exist I took advantage of being able to use the shorthand.

my door doesn’t close fully, so I close it all but the crack that is forced. I do this because people in the house are up and down constantly, and my sleep schedule would bd interrupted if I left it open.

ok, let me clarify. Obscenity is not protected under the first amendment. Accidental gore/maiming is maybe allowed, at most it’s a grey area until its concidered obscene, however once it hits the obscenity level the supreme court has declared that it is a violation of federal law and therefore illegal. It’s a huge reason that many sites actively take the content down and have it against TOS. Most enforcement/regulation with the standing is generally in relation to minors, but it isn’t exclusive to minors.

Considering a lot of gore content is illegal in places such as the US, it’s possible they the tag doesn’t exist anymore on most places to avoid promoting the content.

I mean they are currently /ok/ but since it’s only samsung devices it bounces off instead of every android device it doesn’t have the versatility that the Apple airtags have (where it bounces off any apple device and any android device with the app), so if it’s between one of the other I would go with air tag since you can still use them on android (with a secondary app) but as always YMMV since it’s made for Apple devices

that being said, might be changing with googles support for trackers!

fully agree, I dislike light mode but the true black dark modes hurt just the same after extended periods, grey mode somewhat like how discord has it hopefully turns into standard for dark mode styles instead of OLED style dark modes

I can’t disprove any findings that the article never claims. I just read through all three of those. That was the biggest waste of time I did today.

Nothing in those articles stated any evidence or facts(article 2 doesn’t even talk about dark mode past the first paragraph btw, it transitions into blue light and calling it dark mode). Nothing was peer-reviewed. None of them even took a side.

That being said, I decided to do some research of my own on the college portal, it doesn’t seem like there is much actual research on the matter period. The closest thing I could find is a study indicating that usage of dark mode can cause you to be more honest, which i have saved to read later because that sounds interesting.

What I do know is, I could barely read article 1 and 3 due to the text on the screen. I actually have a headache from the strain of the black text on white background. I really don’t understand how people can do that. Like sure white text on black screen can be a pain at times as well but, at least it doesn’t give me a headache. It’s not like dark mode implementations are white on black, most of them are a white on grey or a grey on black to allow for a lesser adjustment, it’s OLED themes that do pitch black with white text. I can do dark theme any day, my eyes hurt with OLED themes

It’s not just the tab s8, I have a tab s7 and it’s super bright and obnoxiously loud even at the lowest settings. I don’t understand why there is not more control over it.

I was going to make a comment then I noticed the community. I agree you found a really unpopular opinion. I expect the downvoters are ones who didn’t realize the community you posted to.

That being said, it’s still early on, I’m hoping it stays alive. I miss some of the nitche communities as well but, a good portion did somewhat migrate, you just need to reach out and sub to them cause it doesn’t show them very well.

that you can not! lol Thankfully theres ton’s of options. I personally couldn’t get into having communities be called magazines, I found it confusing to find what I wanted then I moved to lemmy and then it was somewhat re-enforced the decision when it was stated that the instance was being de-federated from some instances so I sorta just stayed.

both depending on area and what I use for cleaning (body wash vs soap)

I made an account on both world and kbin, I gave up mostly on the kbin account, I couldn’t find anything local that caught my eye and I didn’t like the UI layout for it, that night be part of their issue as well

this one worked!

despite 3 different links, not one of them worked on connect, sadness lol

or sometime they do hash the password but they are just ignorant of how it works so they keep the limit regardless

some sites like Walmart are removing the password requirement completly in favor of OTP, mcdonalds does the same, you type your email/phone number it sends you a link and you click the link to gain access. I wouldn’t recommend that for a bank site but, a low risk site? why not.

you gotta be careful with the afterlife though, only heros make it past judgement iirc most get turned away for aimless wander or whatever it was

Agree with the many others here, you have a secured income source and a secured place of residence at the very least a temporary source of residence. You want to be where you can still be earning money and the worst case scenario is if it ends up changing later on down the road you can probably go back to your hometown again cuz I expect that it the offer will stay on the table, that being said it sounds like you also have your friends in that area so in my mind that’s a no-brainer and I likely wouldn’t have wasted money moving. But I’m also not super family-oriented so I can definitely understand wanting to live near family

Ultimately I am the same way, I want to be able to stay in my hometown but I know realistically that I’m not going to be able to progress my career here, it’s too much of a tech dead zone, make sure to go where you’re able to get money, money can’t always flow everywhere

I blocked it at the router, so nowadays I don’t use it unless there’s an article I really need to access
